Act of Faith #3

Lord Jesus,
eternal and infallible Truth,
since Thou hast said that
Thou art really present in the holy Eucharist,
I believe it firmly.
Yes, this Host which I see,
and which I am to receive,
is not bread,
but the living Body of Jesus Christ,
God and Man:
it is the God Whom the Angels adore in heaven;
I believe it.
I do not understand this Mystery,
but I wish to believe it without seeking to penetrate it,
that I may have the happiness
of seeing and contemplating it one day in heaven.
Strengthen it so lively,
that I may honour Thee,
love Thee,
and receive Thee,
as if I already beheld Thee.

Visit, we beseech Thee, O Lord, this dwelling, and drive far from it all snares of the enemy; let Thy holy Angels dwell herein, to preserve us in peace; and let Thy blessing be upon us forever. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. continue reading

In the centuries old Catholic tradition, holy cards or prayer cards are small, devotional cards for the use of the faithful. Prayer cards have an endless amount of use and make wonderful gifts and keepsakes.
